There is a new robot in town, and his name is DASH. He can do most anything and my kids love the new robot DASH! He is quite amazing!
Usually, when we get a ‘smart‘ toy like DASH, we are confused as to how it all works. I do not like confusing toys at all. But, DASH is not hard to figure out. In fact, he is fully charged right out of the box and he is pretty easy to play with. Check out DASH and his little friend, Dot, below!
He responds to your voice, he navigates around things, he really likes to dance and sing too! He is a joy to have around and my kids, especially my 3-year-old, adore him!
It was so funny, I heard my toddler laughing the other day, and I walk into the kitchen and he has DASH on and dancing and he was laughing so hard! Oh, how I WISH I had my camera at that moment!!!
You can use Wonder, Blockly, and other apps to create new behaviors for Dash — doing more with robotics than ever possible. No books needed! DASH is just really fun to play with and he is full of surprises.
What comes in the box
1 Dash
1 Charging Cord
2 Building Brick Connectors
Getting Started Guide
Everything you need to get DASH up and going is in the box he comes in. You just download his app and then you can get ready for some serious fun!
Want to know what else is awesome about DASH? Your child can learn from him too. I can start teaching my preschooler coding with the Path app. I haven’t done this yet, but plan to this week because my two oldest are in school now and I can focus more on these sorts of things!
You can use your Apple or Android smartphone or tablet to program Dash. It is easy to program him and so much fun to watch my kids interact with him. This was definitely one of our favorite things we have reviewed in a long time!
Watch Dash In Action!
DASH is quite speedy and loves our kitchen floor. He zooms around the floor and even the carpet, easily. I was surprised he could go on our carpet with such ease!
Buy
You can purchase DASH online at Best Buy. He retails for $149.99. I think he would make a great Christmas gift for your little ones this year!
What Do You Think Of DASH?
Richard Hicks says
It is so cool. I bet it drives the pets crazy too
Patricia Hoffmeister says
This looks like something my 2-year old granddaughter would really like to play with. I can keep it at my house so we would have something to do when she comes over.
Lyndsey R. says
Technology is forever amazing me! Wish I had this when my son was 2 or 3.
Kathy Pease says
This looks really awesome and I think my granddaughter would get a kick out of this 🙂
Dorothy Hubbard says
I can imagine the delight on a childs face when he first plays with this toy.
Mike S. says
What a fun introduction to robotics and remote controls for a kid. We’ve already built a robot hand together and done lots of other cool stuff, but this would be a better start than we had if I had another youngin coming up.
Maryann D. says
This is really cool. I love amazing toys like this and I am sure it is very entertaining.
Dana Rodriguez says
That WOULD make a great Christmas gift!
Melissa Storms says
It looks like a fun toy, I think it would make my chihuahua even more neurotic than she already is,
Michelle D says
Ha! This looks super neat

It’s a weird looking toy lol.
Mary Beth Elderton says
What fun! I don’t know whether it would be the kids, my Hubz, or the cats who would have the most fun.
Marcie W. says
I think our dog would have just as much fun with a toy like this as my kids would. It would be fun to learn all of the different ways DASH can be programmed too.
Laura says
This is so much fun! I’m sure the kids absolutely love it! 🙂
SHIRLEY SYMON says
This looks like fun. It would be nice to get an electronic toy that does not take hours to set up.
Edye says
This looks so fun! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Cynthia C says
I was wondering how my cat would react to this. Chase it, or ignore it like she does the laser light toy.
Nancy says
This looks like a very fun smart toy. I am sure the kids love it!
vickie couturier says
oh wow.that does look like lots of fun

My grandkids would love one of these. It would be so much fun on the hardwood floor.

This looks like so much fun! I also wonder how our animals would respond to it.
